A Wild Wonderland of Light

Glowing animals welcome you on an unforgettable nighttime journey that includes giant illuminated snowflakes, a disco ball forest, a whimsical herd of animated elephants, and a twinkling tunnel filled with dynamic swirls of color. L.A. Zoo Lights is a not-to-be-missed nighttime holiday light experience and has glowed brighter each year since its debut in 2014. This year's event features more light animals than ever before, spectacular new additions – both hand-crafted and high-tech – and returning favorites.

  • Enjoy new features for the 2019/20 season, including the world's largest illuminated pop-up storybook, more light animals than ever before, beautiful hand-crafted Chinese silk lanterns, and a high-tech interactive display where dancing lights respond to guests' voices.
  • Capture your holiday memories in a photo with Santa Claus in a charming new setting on select dates.
  • Warm up with hot cocoa and other holiday treats available for purchase
  • Become part of the show with glowing merchandise available for purchase.
  • Park for free any night.

As L.A. Zoo Lights is a special event, the only animals on display will be the critters in the LAIR and the Asian elephants, who can choose to be outside or in their barn. The rest of the Zoo's animals will be off exhibit and snug in their night quarters.
